The place is really nice, very clean and has a lot of space to sit and relax, work or meet new people :). The rooms are quiet, you have your own storage with lock and the privacy is amazing, never had such an experience in a hostel! Shower is big, hot water running and most importantly it is really clean. The only thing that could've been bette was the wifi reception in my room :( it didn't reach.

Breakfast was really good, was able to have breakfast before even check-in, could store my luggage for free, and had a bathroom inside my room so that was really nice. The location is awesome, next to a lot of cool places, CVS, Starbucks and nice restaurants.

I liked the environment and vibes of the hostel very much. They have something free to drink or eat in most of days. I stayed in a few hostels but this one made a difference by giving me much more comforts. There is a nice person whose names is Coco. She helped me a lot with my requirements. I really liked the way she approaches people with a smile face. There are many rooms to get some rest, watch tv and play games with friends. The kitchen is big enough and has lots of kitchen stuff. I am sure you find whatever you need. The hostel is very clean and everything is fully organized. I would stay here if i visit San Diego again. So, i strongly recommend this hostel.

The hostel is very clean and Reuben, the manager takes great care to ensure that everything runs smoothly- if you like a more relaxed social vibe (not party party) then this place is a jewel.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
